The aim of this MS Excel workbook is:

to simplify the tracking and reporting of CO2 emissions created in the production of a documentary.

to provide data for the calculation of a production's CO2 emissions

This workbook has 5 sections. The more data you include, the more accurate your reporting of CO2 emissions

1 Travel & Transport

2 Energy & Fuel

3 Supplies & Waste

4 Offices, Studios, Hotels & Accommodation

5 Post-production

If you need to insert additional lines, please remember to check that the spreadsheet formulae are correct

This tracker is a work in progress. The eventual am is to provide an

online calculator which will use IPCC figures to calculate a production's

carbon emissions.

This 'basic' carbon tracker will allow you to estimate with reasonable accuracy the carbon usage of your production. If you, or your

carbon offsetter, would like more accurate information, please use the 'detailed' version.
